This is one of the strangest animals in the world, which still has scientists confused. I'm talking about platypus.
This semi-aquatic mammal, which lives in Australia and Tasmania, has a very peculiar appearance, as if it was created by a crazy artist who combined parts of different animals. It has a body covered in soft, dense fur, webbed feet like a duck's, a strong, flat tail like a beaver's, and a long, flat duck's bill.
But what really makes the platypus unique are its abilities. It is one of the few mammals that lays eggs instead of giving birth to live young. And not only that, but it also has an electrical sense that allows it to detect the electrical signals emitted by the muscles and nerves of its prey. It's like he has a super power!
But wait, there's more. During the mating season, the males have venom glands on their hind feet. Yes, you heard right! The platypus is one of the few venomous mammals in the world. And not only that, but he is also an excellent swimmer who can close his eyes, nose and ears when he is underwater.
